==WHAT ARE PYRRHIC POINTS== A Pyrrhic Victory is a victory with devastating cost to the victor. These "points" are a narrative device enabling the players to bring creative input to bear in the game, beyond merely describing theri own actions and throwing the dice. With Pyrrhic Points, you, the players, can alter the game world in some may so as to benefit your character but with a cost attached. Pyrrhic Points are intended to offer you the chance to add to the story of your character, adapting the events around you or the circustances that befall you so as to improve the game and give hope to the grim world of Aryth, be it ever so slight. You will recieve Pyrrhic Points ONLY through time given to "BLUEBOOKING" play, as described under Bluebooking. You will recieve one PP for the Bluebooked time between sessions. These PP are extremely precious, since they can save your life. You can achieve this by opting to be "left for dead" rather than killed outright. They have three other uses as well; but saving you life is definately the most crucial one, so it is recommended that you always keep one PP reserved for that purpose alone. Of course, the angle might be perfect for a "Mighty Blow" instead, eve if that leaves you desperately short of PPs but that is a decision for your hero to take. Magical resurrection is very scarce in possibilities, though it is achievable in interesting ways it is usually best to simply not die. Your maximum number of PPs at any given time equals your level.
